harlie Brock in 2013-14 will enter his 16th season as the
C head coach at Springfield College and his 34th season
as a head coach overall.
Brock’s achievements as a coach are certainly impressive.
He has taken three schools to the NCAA Division III
Tournament twice and has an overall, 33-year record of
459-406 for a winning percentage of .530. At Springfield he
is 230-177 (.565).
Brock, however, is far from just a successful coach; he’s
also a committed educator and community leader. In April,
2006, Brock was named to serve on the prestigious National
Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Board of
Directors. Also in 2006, he was named to the NCAA Division
III Men’s Basketball Committee. Since 2002, he has been a
member of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Rules Committee,
which made national news in May, 2007 when they changed
the distance of the men’s collegiate three-point line from
19’ 9” to 20’ 9”. That took affect at the start of the 2008-
09 season. Also within the past two years, he completed a
term of 22 years as a member of the NABC Academics
Committee, a committee in which he was the chair.
Locally, Brock is the director of the Springfield College
Pride’s Literacy Awards program, which is associated
with Verizon, the City of Springfield and the Community
Foundation of Western Mass. The purpose of this
program is to promote the importance of reading to
children, targeting first through third grades. He is also
a contributing writer to the popular NABC publication,
Courtside.
Brock has maintained a long tradition of SC coaches
who have lent their teaching skills to other countries.
Brock headed south in May of 2008 as one of the
lead clinicians to Venezuela. Through the Venezuelan
Basketball Association, Brock lectured and helped
instruct over 125 coaches. In the summer of 2005 he
traveled to Taiwan to lecture and conduct clinics
to various Taiwanese age groups. Members of the
Taiwanese Basketball Federation have spent extended
periods of time observing Coach Brock in season.

One of the top names in New England Division III coaching circles, Pete
Broaca is entering his 16th year as a member of the Pride coaching staff.
In the fall of 2009, Broaca was inducted into the New England Basketball Hall
of Fame, and very deservedly so. He is a past President of the New England
Basketball Coaches Association, and has served on several National Association
of Basketball Coaches (NABC) committees over the years. Broaca has 25 years
of head coaching experience, including positions at Coast Guard (1971-1984),
and Western New England College (1986-1993). He led both to NCAA Division III
Tournaments in 1979 and 1990, respectively, and was selected as the Northeast
Region Division III Coach of the Year both seasons. In September of 2004, the 1978-
79 Coast Guard Academy team was inducted into the New England Basketball Hall
of Fame. Broaca, who received the Collegiate Basketball Officials’ Association
Sam Scoenfeld Sportsmanship Award for the 1990-91 season, also served as
head coach/freshman coach at Pascack Hills (N.J.) High, Milford Academy, and
Jamestown Community College. Broaca served as an assistant coach at three
schools, including American International College for four seasons. He was
an assistant coach under Henry Bibby with the Springfield Fame of the United
States Basketball League during its inaugural season in 1986. Broaca also was
the associate head coach/freshman coach at the University of Massachusetts
for five seasons (1966-1971), where he coached Julius Erving, Rick Pitino, and
Al Skinner. Broaca is a 1959 graduate of Boston University, where he earned his
bachelor’s degree in physical education, health education, and recreation. While
at BU, he was a member of the baseball and basketball teams. Broaca earned his
master’s degree in physical education at Penn State in 1961, and his C.A.G.S. in
sport studies from Connecticut in 1985.
native of Keene, N.H., Pat Luptowski enters his first year as an
A assistant coach at Springfield College. A three-year start at
St. Anslem’s after transferring from Adelphi University, Luptowski

all-time leading scorer in Keene High School history. Currently
pursuing a Masters degree in Business, Luptowski works heavily

Jim Mack returns to his alma mater and will begin his second
season on the sidelines this upcoming campaign. A local
product from Westfield, Mass., Mack played for Brock from
2002-2006 and was a member of the 2005 squad that reached
the second round of the NCAA Championship. Mack spent the
last six seasons on the coaching staff at Sabis Charter School in
Springfield, five of which he served as the Bulldogs head coach.
At the reigns, Mack led Sabis to three Western Mass. title, two
trips to the state championship game, a state title in 2010, and
an overall record of 93-22. He was twice honored as the MBCA
Coach of the Year in ’08 and ’10 and was named the Springfield
Republican Coach of the Year in 2011. He is currently working
on his Masters degree in Sport Management after earning his
undergraduate degree in mathematics. Mack will be charged
with recruiting, player development, and in-game tactics.
